LilRed : = Well the days and evenings had passed without so much of a word from Red. She had used her time to shift into her wolf form. Allowed the wolf to take over for a while. All she needed was just time. To nurse the broken heart.. nurse the rage. But the rage wouldn't stay trampled. It built up and up until the only place she could go to was.. back to Eladrin. The woman stood before the castle. Her hands slipping behind her back. White blonde hair slipping over her shoulders and covering over her milky eyes. "I wish to speak with.. Lord Lucien.. " The words rolled out of her mouth with little emotion. Just coldness. This was a serious matter that she had taken into consideration. Thought about it over and over. The only conclusion she could come to terms with was.. either kill and be put down. Or... Fight for something that could be worth it. Worth the protection. So naturally the military seemed to be a good fit for her. Long hard hours of training. Yelling orders. Killing enemies. Sounded.. like the perfect life for her. =end=
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would be in the study at this time as he was doing some research on a particular Council Member and his families background. He was at one of the tables and looking through the archives when a soldier came to him with Lil Red trailing up behind him. He whispered into Lucien's ear and then Lucien dismissed the guard as he looked on over to the woman. Indicating to his right for her to take a seat. "You wish to join the military... what branch and at what capacity do you believe your skills will be good for... also... what are your skills?" he would lean back after shutting the tome so that she would not see what he was doing... for he did not know her from an adams apple. He looked her up and down slowly as if he were gaging her at this time.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : awoke with another nightmare again but this time she sat up in a severe cold sweat. She climbed out of bed, her hair was a little damp, wearing her green gown with her night cap as she came around the corner and down the halls to go find her father. She was heading to his office since thats where he has been spending most of his time lately but she stopped with a sigh at the door when she heard his voice talking to someone and it sounded important. She sighed heavily as she sat down in the hall way. She had to be a good girl so she didn't go back to that fire place, she was so scared to go back there. Her eyes were swollen from last nights crying from her nightmares all thanks to Azriel. Her meanie cousin as she sat knees to chest on the floor with her back against the wall waiting for her dad to finish and trying not to listen in, just waiting till the other person left. <E>
LilRed : = She followed with ease. Even though she couldn't really see, she listened to the shift in the air. The sound of the tome closing loudly. Her head continued to stay leveled with his. Her milky eyes staring forward, unblinking. "Yes I wish to join. My many years as an experienced hunter should be skills enough to join. I also have "Have a different form. Sharper senses.. heightened reflexes.. Longer fuse.." She cleared her voice. " You won't be sorry hiring me. I train hard. I don't give up easily.. and if it is my time to die.. I'll take many enemies with me". She continued to stand with her chin held high. "The only downside is my lack of vision. But "For the lack of my sight.. I make up in other areas. I strive to do my best.. and only the best. I do not accept failure. Only success". She also needed something to focus on. Besides the boiling rage within her heart.=end=
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he furrowed his brows slightly and tilted his head to the side while then he too would stand up only to face her but as he did so... there was a sudden swift motion from his left hand and one that would be like a bluring... blink of an eye. He would try and punch her in the stomach but... if it did get through her defenses he would stop dead only an inch from her actual body. A test to see just how badly her eye sight would be and if she would be able to actually deploy things and such of herself to keep an enemy at bay..~
Delilah : had come out of the stone in the great hall of the castle, She would have worn nothing but of that of the earth itself. Leaves and moss covered the important bit and her body was lightly draped with roots and vines, The creature would blink and smile softly. The woman would then then look about the room before frowning a little bit, She would slowly make her way to the dining room where Delilah and Nim had breakfast with at one time. Once there the woman would grab herself some food and then took a seat in one of the chair's, Though something had caught her attention. There were chips in the stone off to her right and scrapes on the stone flooring from what looked to be weapons scraping across it, Delilah would raise a brow and gently lean down to touch the stone. Closing her eye's the woman would see and feel what had happened in this room she now sat in, After a moment she would jolt her eye's open and immediately blush. "Oh my." She would then keep to herself and go about eating now.<e>
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : Just continues to wait~
LilRed : = She could hear the different sounds shifting. A slight flap of his outfit had tipped her off. The left hand was moving towards her. Her right hand curled into a fist. She pushed her arm forward quickly, deflecting his left hand. She pushed her left leg back and stretched out her right. Lowering herself to the ground. Her left hand hand shot out. Wrapping her fingers around his ankle. Now if he had moved.. she would catch the bottom of his pant leg. If he didn't, his ankle would be in her grasp. Red would pull her arm back towards her chest, attempting to knock Lucien off his feet. =end=
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : appeared in the dining hall where she felt a familiar ping and saw Delilah where she had spoken out the words 'oh my' . "Yes not exactly one of my daughters finer moments..." She said shaking her head and sitting down nearby Delilah as she continued on. "So what brings you here? You need help? Is Damien in trouble? Drakkonis? Are you alright?" She asked curiously to the woman, not often she brought herself here to this neck of the woods. So something must of been off, but you never know with that side of the family, she had to deal with quite a bit with them in recent days. Now she folded her arms and waited for Delilah to respond hoping there wasn't more trouble heading this way. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would keep a very sharp eye on her and the motions of her body... as she went down and she went for his ankle she would find him flipping backwards while bringing his feet upwards to the underside of her chin but not till after he had jumped up and ever slightly backwards but the closeness of them both would still make it so that his long legs would hopefully either hit her under the chin and or her to block his next attack upon her frame. IF he was able to successfully do the back flip though he would continue to do the backflip till he was standing up once more. He would put his hand up to stop her from any more actions BUT IF he did not get back up he would continue with the sparring~
LilRed : = She snarled softly but it was a snarl of happiness. For a brief moment she didn't have that rage to think about. When she felt the boot push under her chin. Well yes..that had slightly stung. Her head smacked the floor hard but she was already rolling to her side. Her claws snagged the side of his boot. So as he landed, she was sprawled out to the left side of him. With her hand still attached to his boot. Raising herself up a bit, her right hand moved towards his thigh. If she was successful the hit from her fist would hurt like a bitch. However if.. it wasn't, all he would feel was a slight rake from her claws. She was still in a vulnerable position since her left hand was caught upon his boot.=End=
Delilah : "Mmm I think it was quite fine Nimena, You don't need to be ashamed. She's young." The woman would listen to what Nim had said about danger and such. "No not at all, I am fine and so is everything else but as far as Drakk goes...well he's been collared it would seem and now remains in Nighthowl..." The creature would wave a hand and smiled softly, Delilah would go back to nibbling the meal she had picked out to eat. Her eye's would look about the dining room before laying her eye's back on Nimena, She would take a sip from a fruity drink. "How are thing's here Nimena?" She would ask politely, The dining room would fill with warmth and the scent of spring.<e>
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : "Well that puts a damper on things now doesn't it?" She said referring to Drakk about the collaring. "I wonder how his crystals are going to function here while he is under lockdown......If he is not in any danger then I will let him get out of that situation due to he has Tacita, if I don't have to leave here with Gisselle still not herself and my husband and I running things here in the meantime. I don't have much time for anything else save for it being a dire emergency..." She explained as she took a sip of tea and awaited for Delilah to respond. "Otherwise things are okay....under control for the most part.." <e>
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was sitting down waiting patiently when she heard a bunch of crashing in her fathers study. "Somethings wrong!" She said as she jumped up to her little feet and ran into the door to find daddy in a wierd position with a strange lady. Elera went wide eyed, well as wide as they could get because they were so puffy and just stood there with her mouth open for a few moments before speaking out. "Are you two playing?" She asked quietly as she stood by the door waiting to be told to leave or what to do at this moment because she didn't know what else to say. <E>
Delilah : would listen and smile softly to Nimena, She would look to her meal and then back to Nim. "Is there anything I can do for you?" The creature would ask in a gentle tone, She would take a piece of meat and put it in her mouth to chew. The woman would take a sip once more and tilt her head off to the left, She would wiggle a little in her chair.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would use his right knee to knock the hand from his inner thigh and he then put his hands up and spoke... "Stop!... relax now...." He would have noted the snagging of her claws to his boot and he chuckled softly with a nodding of his head. "I think you are more then able to defend yourself and in that aspect I will give you, your choice of branches to join. You will be just one of our Soldiers till I see..." he stopped and looked on over to his daughter and blinked... "Oh damn..." he whispered and laid down onto his back again with his arm on over his face... "Yes Elera... we are sparring." he lifted his head and went to try and undo Red's claws from his boot. It was a good thing he was wearing his hard boots this day.~
Niɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : thought for a moment before speaking out. "For now if you would if your going to stay for a while and Drakkonis is indesposed, when Gisselle goes out just keep watch over her......I know she is safe for the most part, but if she ever happens to wander out of the warded area, just ......keep a look out. Kushiel is watching the children but she has been so busy with the wee ones she cannot keep track of the older ones, and they bounce all over the place. "<e>
LilRed : = Her hand stilled in the air. She was panting heavily but had a smirk upon her face. " Thank you.. My lord.." She sighed softly and reached behind his boot. Attempting to pluck her claws off of his boot. When she did, Red pushed herself away from Lucien. At the small voice, Red looked over at Elera. Okay..so it the sight was.. *okay so.. the sight was.. awkward. Very awkward. She cleared her throat and pushed herself into a standing position. "Uh... Yep Just sparring. Your father kicked my ass.. I mean shit! Sorry! crap! I mean beat me.." Oh hell. Well fuck it. She swore a lot. =end=
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : She went wide eyed when the lady said a lot of new words she never heard before. She decided that it was probably a good idea not to say them so she sort of just nodded. "I...heard a crash and thought something was wrong.....I never heard the sparring game before.....but .....okay father.....I umm....I will go away till your done..." She said sort of quietly as she shut the door and sat back down in the hallway quietly till they were finished. <E>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He would arch a brow slightly as Elera went out of the study once more. Grimacing slightly he would look to Red and put his hand out to her... "I will have you go see Captain Phesone at the training grounds. Ask one of the guards to bring you there. Let him know that you have just sparred with me and that you wish to go into whatever branch of the military you wish to. I am sorry but I think I should go see to my daughter... she seems to be needing a bit of attenion at this time. And M'lady Red... welcome to the military." he smiled to her and nodded his head only to then let go of Red's hand... IF she actually shook it or not and went to go see to his little princess.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : saw her father and that lady come out of her fathers study and she stook up dusting off her dress from the floor. She only came up to his knees as she looked up to him stretching her neck speaking out when the lady started to walk away from them. "I don't want to sleep anymore.....can you stop me from sleeping so I don't have to dream anymore?" She said quietly as she looked to him with her arms at her sides she didn't want to see the smoke anymore and the noises from the monsters. "I don't like fire anymore...." She said now putting her head down with a heavy sigh. It was sort of a cryptic statement, but she really didn't know what hell was nor was told thats where she was when Azriel attacked her. <e>
LilRed : = She had nodded her head. " I understand.. My lord.." She cleared her throat. Her hand reached out, feeling his hand. Her fingers gripped his tightly. A firm handshake. " Thank you My lord.. I will not let you.. or Lady Nimera.. Or the kingdom of Eladrin down.." She let go of his hand and stalked out of his room. She moved swiftly and with grace. Even though she couldn't see, she could tell the difference between a wall and an open hallway. Lucien had told her to go see the Captain.. So that was her intention. Visiting the captain would be her the first thing to do in this kingdom. She was rather.. proud of herself. So the grin would form upon her lips.. =end=
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He furrowed his brows slightly as he then bent at his knees to pick her up into his arms and kissed her cheek lightly. "why is it that you do not wish to sleep my little dove? You can have so many lovely dreams when you shut your eyes. Griffons that you ride in the skies of a sun set or running through a field of flowers with unicorns and pegasus all around you. The wonderful magics that you can conjure in your dreams can be such a wonderful experience. So... tell daddy why you would not wish to see these things when you fall to sleep?" he was wondering about the fire aspect of her words as well. "Little dove you are of fire yourself... you are of my body as you are of mommies body too and flames is a natural thing for you to do... due to me." he put his palm out and soon there were two figures dancing on his hand but they were made of flames.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : saw the flames and buried her head in her fathers shoulder as she spoke out. "No...I can't make fire anymore mommy stopped me....I don't wanna see fire anymore....Or the smoke or the dark place or the monsters growls and claws and the bad smell and I couldn't breathe and I was good I was just trying to protect sissy's garden I didn't want to get eaten by the monsters and smoke!" She said crying out and curling up against him hiding in his hair. She was crying again. "He was ripping up Sissy's roses and I tried to put him back and he pushed me in a dark room and I couldn't get out or breathe! I was good I was fixing it what he was tearing up and I was choking I see it in my dreams all the time I don't wanna see it anymore!" She said continuing to cry trying to explain everything. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He listened to her and hugged tightly as he would slip his thoughts into his love's mind as carefully as his angered mind could let him... *love... can I see and speak with you about something? Now?!* his words were too softly... too calmly spoken but she would feel the anger arising in his body and he does not even know what is going on... yet.~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : appeared as soon as Lucien called for her and saw Elera crying on his shoulder. SEeing the fire dancing and Elera shaking she put two and two together immediately and she new that look in his eyes. She walked over and put a hand on Elera's head putting her to sleep on her fathers shoulder so she wouldn't hear their conversation. "You had been so busy I hadn't hardly seen you or had a chance to catch you up on what has occured......nor did I think she would remember..." She said as she had a lot of explaining to do it seemed. " Two nights ago Azriel was digging up the roses in the royal garden. Elera was upset because he was destroying her sisters garden. She started to put the dirt back and Azriel being a kid had a temper tantrum and basically pushed Elera downstairs..... sort of what Drakkonis did to me many years ago......she's our daughter but taking after me she doesn't do well in hell. Drakkonis and Kushiel were able to get her out and Drakkonis saved her. Azriel is under punishment somewhere....but Drakkonis is collard and being held in another realm....and Elera hasn't said much until today.....to you....before I could talk to you...." She wished she could of told Lucien first.....she didn't want him to find out this way. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he looked to his love as his eyes would be fiery in coloring and his temperment was not looking too pleased with what he had just been told. He grimaced and hissed lightly while slowly he would put his left hand upon his daughter's back of her head. He kissed her forehead but... his lips did not come from it. He shut his eyes and the link between the flames inside of Elera and himself... he would join together as one life line... sort of.. When that connection was done he slowly opened his gaze to his love and putting his right hand out for her to grasp onto... while still holding onto their little princess. The three of them would suddenly appear in his realms of flames but instead of flames ALL around them there would be a field of red poppys all around as far as the eyes could see. In the distance the sun was coming up over the horizan but every aspect of it would be of flames that would hardly be seen for his daughter to see the beauty of what flames could be. The colors it could bring for even the poppys would be made of flames themselves. There were even imps like that of what Gisselle, Tylan and even Thraele have with them.~ wake her up love... he would speak softly~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : took his hand and followed him to that firey pit of his and watched him change it. When he changed it Nim lifted the sleeping spell upon Elera and spoke out softly. "Look.......not all fire is scary....even I was once afraid of the fire.....The very same thing happened to me that happened to you......your father had to show me like he is showing you now that it is not scary. Some fire is good, and you are part fire....and you are good. You did nothing wrong that day, you were protecting your sisters flowers, and now look at all these flowers. " She said in soft tones waiting for Elera to react. <e>
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was awake for a second in a hall way, the next she was in a place with red flowers and bouncy flames. She really didn't like the bouncy flames at first, then she heard her mother talking. She still didn't know what hell was or thats where she was actually at that day, but she looked around, saw the flames kind of dancing towards her and she just hid her face in her dads hair. "No" She said quietly pointing the statement more towards the fire imps. "Don't like it........" She said curling up again against her dad. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He smiled and shook his head with a soft laughter. He would have the imps disappear except one... that one would suddenly be on his shoulder opposite of where Elera was hidding her face into her father's shoulder and chest. The imp went from the opposite shoulder and over to the one Elera was at only to suddenly and ever so gently poke her on the head... the imp tried to hide inside of Lucien's hair but it's tail and ever so tiny buttocks was still sticking out from the crimson hair hanging losely along his shoulders.~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : was just watching the whole thing silent now with them as the fire imp moved to Elera poking her.
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : felt something poke her and it was that imps face coming out of part of her daddys hair. Now that wasn't suppose to happen, why wasn't daddy's hair burning! There was fire in it! Did not make sense! She shook her head at it. "Nope.." she said as she watched the Imp just staring at her. She quickly took her finger and poked at it back and it didn't burn. She blinked and poked it again, she guessed where its stomach would have been. She blinked again and moved from her daddys shoulders standing up and staring at that thing on his shoulder. As if the little wheels of the six year old were dangerously turning. "Your not the same fire, you weren't dark and you are letting me breathe....the other fire that Azzie put me in made me float over my body before Uncle Drak put me back...." Nim went wide eyed, she didn't know things went that far as she stared but said nothing. Elera was still staring at the fire imp. "How do I know whats bad and whats good....Azriel was good but he went bad, Fire was good, but Azriel's fire was bad......I don't.........like.......this....:" She didn't like knowing what was what or what was bad or good or up or down. "If I promise to sleep can I go home?" She liked the flowers but she was still not completely comfortable trying to talk her way out of it. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he chuckled softly and put the imp, who was chuckling as well from the pokings of his tummy. it sounded so cute like that of a crackling fire from off of a log. Lucien looked over to Nim and seeing the look of shock on his love he grimaced slightly but then nodded his head as he would take both his ladies' hands into his own and slowly did the flames become the colorings of the rainbow to bring them back to the Castle and into the gardens. There he would have one of the other nannies bring her to her room while the very scent of burning logs would be on all four of them... yes the small imp joined them back to the castle and as it started to slip off of Lucien's shoulder it would start to transform into that of a cute little fluffy pillow like doll for his daughter. He knelt down and kissed her forehead lightly... "He will be a friend for when you need one and even will take you to safety if it is needed. Do accept this gift?" he asked her softly.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ nodded and took it and went with the nanny to bed
Azriel : had stepped out while his mother was busy doing mother thingies elsewhere in the bathroom, He had went back to the castle garden's to replant the rose's he tore out of the ground. Feeling bad for what he had done the boy would sit where he had been before, The creature would pout and look about the garden from his position noticing the girl wasn't there. His abilities have been capped for the time being but he still had questions about what he had experienced through the necklace that was given to him, The boy's wing's were out but were still sore. He moved them slightly and turned his head to look at them, Azriel would sigh and soon get up from his position and wandered into the castle itself. He was looking for Elera.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He had been told by one of the imps that Azriel was in the gardens and then shown what he was doing there. Lucien arched a crimson brow and smiled to himself as he then looked on over to his love and daughter... "I have something to do for a moment... continue to eat your dinners." he would lean down slightly to kiss his daughter's forehead lightly as well as his love's cheek only to then leave from the dinning hall to go meet up with the boy just as he stepped in from the gardens. He looked very sternly down at the boy but inside he was hiding the fact that he was so proud of the boy for what he had just done. "So... you are Azriel... I take it?" he spoke lightly with his arms folded over his chest while then waiting for an answer from the young male.~
Azriel : would stop in his tracks and looked up at Lucien, His creepy gaze falling upon the other male. "Aye, I am..." The creature would then look down to the flooring, He would rub a single foot against the stone floor. "I didn't mean to take her there..." The boy would speak up knowing exactly who he was to Elera, His mother and father had told him of their relation. "I'm sorry..." He would admit to the other male, The creature would tear up a little bit knowing how serious it had gotten when they were down there. The boy knew what happened to the girl, He also knew what his father did for the child too. "I really am sorry..." He would reach up to his collar which Lucien wouldn't be able to see, The boy tugged on it not liking the feel of having it on.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he crouched down to get to the eye level of the child and grimaced slightly... "A child's anger is a very emotional and powerful thing and I know you did not mean to harm her the way you did. What I would like from you, though, Azriel is for you to join us... and I mean Lady Nimena and Elera for supper. When you are there... I would wish you to say those very words you just did to me... to Elera. Do you think you can do that?" he asked as he put his hand out towards the young one and even smiled slightly to him. "I know what you did in the gardens and I think that will help Elera to start looking at you just a bit differently... you think you can do that too?" he would wait till Azriel took his hand to then stand up again and guide the young one to the dinning hall where he knew Elera and Nimena were having dinner.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : Nimena and Elera were continuing to eat quietly at the dining table. Elera was just eating soup for right now and her milk, Nimena was eating some vegetables and fruit, light dinner she wasn't really very hungry, it was a stressful day and she was worried about how her daughter was processing everything, Nimena wasn't sure how Elera was taking all that had occured with her father today. Elera was just quiet most of the time while mommy and daddy were talking but she did sleep with the Imp pillow and she only awoke once. She wasn't sure where her daddy had to go but he was running a whole contry now like her sissy, it looked scary to do so she hoped she never had to. She wasn't sure what she actually wanted to do but hoped that it didn't have to do with unknown fire of any sort, sort of growing a phobia of fire that wasn't her fathers. <e>
Azriel : would nod to the male and take his hand hesitantly though since he was kind of a stranger to him, Though he would trust him since his father knew this man well. The creature would speak up to him once they started walking. "I promise I'll tell her what I told you, I was actually looking for her in hopes to do just that..." The boy would follow Lucien to where Elera and Nimena had been, He was getting nervous the closer they got to the dining room. Azriel's palms started to sweat and he started to feel as if thing's were going to go bad again, Though he continued on as he tried to push those feeling's back. He would continue to follow the other male, His own grip was firm but not too firm since he was still a little boy after all.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : just before they would turn the last corner to go down the last corridor to the dinning hall... Lucien would crouch down once more and looked to the young boy with pride shining in his eyes... "You have every right to be nervous but I shall be at your side the whole time that you are inside the dinning hall... alright? I shall not let anything happen to you and you can always lean on me if you need to." He nodded and then gripping onto Azriel's hand to show him support... Lucien then strutted on into the dinning hall and presented the young one to his love and his pretty daughter as well. "Look who I had found out by the gardens?" he chuckled softly and brought the young boy to sit across from Elera.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was eating quietly when she saw her dad pop in with non other then Azriel. Her eyes went wide she squeaked like a church mouse that got startled by the scary cat looking at her like his chew toy and ran under the table down the end and out the door. Nimena let out a heavy sigh. "One moment..." It wasn't as if Elera was going to get very far as Nimena poofed into a pile of gold glitter and appeared in front of Elera catching her in mid run. "Stop..." She said softly picking her up. "If he is here with your father he means you no harm, you know your father would never let anything happen to you don't you?" Elera was wanting to throw a fit right then and there, but the last time she threw a fit she ended up in a dark place. "Not hungry anymore!" Nimena smirked as she spoke out. "You can fool the servants...not me..." She knew when her daughter was lying and she poofed back into the dining hall with her daughter and set her down in her seat. "Don't make me glue you there..." And the thing was, Nim would do it too. <E>
Azriel : would look at Elera before she decided to run off, Oh he wanted to do the same thing but remained still in his seat. The boy would look towards Lucien and then back to the table, He would speak up but in a low tone. "I am sorry Elera for taking you somewhere else and hurting you...I didn't mean too..." Then she took off quickly, He would watch her for a moment and then looked at Lucien once more. The boy would look down sadly, His voice being heard once more but only Lucien would hear it. "I knew she would run...just like I want too..." The boy admitted and then saw Elera return with Nimena, He would look at Elera and continued on. "I also replanted your sister's roses..." The creature would look to the table and fiddled with the cloth, He was still feeling nervous. "I really am sorry..." The boy said to Elera.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he nodded his head and smiled before his daughter came back with Nimena once more... "I too had very nervous and scarry moments in my own life Azriel but you grow stronger when you actually face your fears and nervousness. This is only a very small part of what it is to be in the lives of others." he winked and then looked on over to Elera to see what she would do or even say to Azriel when she would finally be returned and hear the last bit of his words. ~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : She looked to the two of them and heard the last bit when he said he was really sorry. Elera looked over at him she didn't know what to say for quite sometime as she went from him to her half eaten soup bowl. She looked at that soup bowl for a while speaking while looking at the soup bowl instead of him. "Sissy is sad, I didn't want you to destroy her roses and make her sadder......it hurt in that dark place........I couldn't breathe.......I was just trying to save the flowers..." She said softly, enough for the three of them to hear, but it was still in a quiet little girl like tone. She still didn't look up from her soup bowl at any of them and remained seated in her chair lest her mom carry out her threat. <E>
Azriel : would listen to Elera and nodded. "I understand...I wasn't in a good mood...I wanted Aunty Kushie...but instead I did what I did...I am sorry...I didn't mean to take you there...It was scary there...I don't like it there...that's my father's realm..." The creature would fiddle with the cloth of the table more, He would swallow hard as he then continued on. "I don't know how I did what I did...but I didn't mean too..." The boy would grow silent once more for a time, Azriel would however reach up and tug at the collar once more. He wanted it off so he could run quicker than Elera had, Though there wasn't a way he could take it off. The boy would frown but he relaxed a little bit hearing Lucien's words, Perhaps that why his father wasn't really fearful of much. "Is that why dad always takes thing's head on without backing down?" He'd ask Lucien while turning to look at him, The boy curious.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he listened to them both and then looked to Nimena with a sharpness of knowing smile on his lips... "My love... and yes I can feel it on our own daughter... why is it that Elera can not do her own abilities at this time?" he would ask softly as he put a hand upon Azriel's shoulder to show that he was here for the young boy. He knew that if they would see that they were pretty close to each other after all... with temper at the least. he looked down to Azriel and chuckled slightly while then shrugging his shoulders a bit more. "It very well could be, Azriel for I was not around when your father was growing up but as for myself I have been able to put my life experiences into me facing other parts of my life and coming out on top or to have others understand where I am coming from." he winked and looked back to his daughter and love once more~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was still looking down at her soup bowl listening to the two of them with Nimena nodding and still remaining silent letting the children for now work it out on their own and catch them if one tried to run, it wasn't until Lucien asked Nimena why Elera could not do her own abilities and she let out a heavy sigh. "Well....before you returned home she was angrier then four Azriel's, angry at any man that attempted to even talk to me screaming she didn't want a new daddy that her daddy would come home.....Little did I know she was exactly right, but I didn't want her attempting to set another man on fire like she did her Uncle Damien in her own bedroom with three servants inside. So I had to cap off her powers till I felt she was old enough to use them.." Nimena explained and Elera let out a heavy sigh. "Some of them were trying to be my new daddy, I didn't like any of em!" She shouted remembering those times, and if she was able to get heated the chair would melt...but thankfully Nim fixed that. <e>
Azriel : would sit there like a fourth wheel, His eye's still looking at the cloth. Tugging harder at the collar now, He felt as if he shouldn't be here with her family. "I...think I should go..." The boy would say before attempting to slip out of the chair, If he was lucky enough to do so he would try to head for the dining hall's door's. If not he would be stopped before slipping off the chair, He would stay then and continued to listen to them all. There was nothing else he could say on the issue that had happened, Though if he was stopped he would look to Nimena and speak to her. "By the way...that pink haired woman was pretty." The boy remembered seeing Thraele, For some reason he was fascinated by her looks and no it wasn't because she was nude...he was a child and didn't know any better at the time.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He would tighten his grip onto that of Azriel's shoulder for he wanted the boy to listen to the words from his love. "It would seem you, Azriel have a temper just as bad as my daughter's. That is at least one thing you two have in common." 'He smiled down to the boy as he then looked on over to Nimena... "How are the studies going for our little princess? She doing good in her studies?" he would ask for he was getting an idea in his head at this time. "I think I shall be speaking with Drakkonis and Tacita about Azriel's own education as well. He could join Elera in her studies for I have a feeling that he would like the scholar we have for Elera, as well. What say you my love?" he would ask lightly once more as a servant would approach that of Azriel and Lucien with the same meal that Lucien had infront of his own spot at the table.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : heard her daddy ask her mommy about her studies and Elera looked up from her soup bowl speaking out. "Mommy said I didn't have to do my studies......because the teacher left....she didn't want to teach me anymore.....she smacked my hand for picking up the wrong fork and I made her hair go poof!" And of course when Elera said that Nim kind of wanted to sink right there. Where did Nim steer wrong? Guilt had taken over her logic with her own daughter which usually never happened. But during that dark time Nim had fallen under a deep depression to the point she was letting Elera do what she wanted and Gisselle and Verve were pretty much watching over her. Elera looked over to Azriel speaking about the pink haired lady. "THRAELE?" She said loudly. "Yea...she is pretty....pretty CRANKY!" She said. she nodded her head in assurance knowing that she was right and most adults wouldn't refute it.....that was probably fighting words to Azriel's ears hearing the way she talked about the pink haired lady. <e>
Azriel : would blink and tilt his head hearing Elera's words, Confused at why Elera would say such a thing about Thraele. "She's not cranky...just misunderstood in my opinion...Before I got this stupid collar on my neck..." He would tug on it again but it would still remain unseen to the other's. "I felt she is a good person... just... trouble? Would that be the correct word?" He would look to Lucien when he asked, The boy would then look to Elera. "She just needs to relax and get used to those around her?" For some reason Azriel was starting to speak as if he was older and wiser now, Perhaps that was because of his memories and experiences his older self had from his time on the planes. Not necessarily with her in general but with other's, He would then look down to the cloth and fiddle with it more. The boy looking at the food, Noticing the venison the boy would start to eat like his father. Hands only and like a savage, He only chewed a few times and swallowed the half chewed food. Clearly there was little to no table manner's.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He narrowed his gaze towards his love, Nimena only to shake his head slightly but then he would pinch the bridge of his nose and sighed out softly. "I shall put out a land wide declarationt hat we need a scholar for the children. And yes little missy you WILL go to see the scholar and you WILL learn from this Scholar and you WILL also be learning from myself on how to use your fire like abilities as well.... then you will learnto..." He blinks and looks on down at Azriel with an arched brow... "Uhm... Azriel... slow down while you eat. you need to breath and not get choked on your food, young one." he nodded and looked to his daughter with a stern look.~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : saw that look and it wasn't a good look to her either, she had already felt bad enough, though she couldn't blame him, even in her own distraught state she made many mistakes she couldn't take back, just fix. She sighed heavily as her daughter remained silent and stood up from her meal speaking out. "You will do as your father says, and Azriel will be joining you in your studies, you two are close in age, I see no reason why you two cannot learn together since you two have so much in common." She stated as she let out a heavy sigh. "Please excuse me I don't feel well..." And with that without allowing any objections at this time she poofed out of the room into their bed chambers to be alone for the time being. <e>
Azriel : would stop and choked on the venison when Nimena said he would learn with Elera, Coughing and choking the boy would flail as the thought of learning with a princess. Shortly after he would beat on his chest and soon the food went down, His eye's widened for a moment. "But what about dad's approval...or moms?" He would look to Lucien, A burp arising the boy would cover his mouth with the crook of his elbow. "Excuse me." Azriel would speak out afterwards, The child would blink more though at the thought of such a thing. "Can she actually say what I can and can't do being not my mother or father?" He'd ask in a curious manner.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He watched his love and grimaced slightly... yes he had every right to be upset with his love but then he was sure that he too would have done a few mistakes IF he had been the one left behind instead of his beloved. He then sat down at his plate and started to eat with his own fingers but in such a way that was still with manners. A show to both his daughter and Azriel that you can still eat with out utencils but still have proper manners in doing so as well. he winked at them both and nodded towards Elera... "So... what do you think of Azriel joining you in your studies while aunty Kushiel is not around?" he asked while taking up a piece of potatoe and plopping it into his mouth. He was going to speak with Nimena later... "As for Lady Nimena getting permission from your parents... believe you me Azriel... she WILL get it and I think it would be good for the two of you to have a study together for this way... the two of you will get to know each other better. After all... you two ARE in the same family." he winked again.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : would stay silent on the whole situation the entire time even when her father asked her after saying she WILL do her studies, she sort of shrugged her shoulders about Azriel joining her in her studies and how her mom WILL get the approval. They were in the same family, his father was her Uncle Drakk, so she already knew Azriel was her cousin. "Can I just go back to my new pillow now?" She asked quietly, she didn't want to say yes, no or indifferent to the situation, but she was going to quietly find a way out of it, she was after all both Nims and Luciens daughter. <e>
Azriel : watched Lucien eat and blinked for a moment, He would do exactly what Lucien had been doing while eating. Picking up a potato and placing it in his mouth like Lucien did the boy would blink. "Why eat like that...you don't get enough in one go...?" He asked curiously while eating, The boy would continue though to eat like Lucien had done so. The young boy would feel a little frustrated with this type of eating since he wasn't used to it, With a slight almost inaudible growl the boy would plop two more potatoes in his mouth instead of one.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he looked on over to his daughter and spoke not a word for a moment. "You have hardly eaten little one. I shall send you a platter for you to munch on... go on and rest. In the gardens... take your pup with you but you are NOT to leave the castle walls... understood?" he again spoke that last part with a stern look to her. Things were going to change around here and he just took the first step in doing such. He then looked on over to Azriel and chuckled softly with a nodding of his head. "well... we do not wish to choke on our food and in polite company... IF you have to eat with your fingers instead of your forks and spoons it is polite to do so slowly and also to... enjoy the flavors of the foods that you eat as well." though he was speaking with an eight year old boy. Oh he remembered those times and the way his own father tried to get him to eat.~
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤Ѵяέȿȿȴⱱέ : She came downstairs to get some juice after loosing so much blood trying to help get Sivella her memories back. She got to the dining hall, wearing a goldenrod colored gown that went to the floor, wraps on both her arms to cover them as went quietly getting her juice seeing her father, Elera leaving the table and Azriel. She smiled to the children and took a sip of juice looking to her father. "Where is Nim?" She asked curiously. She probably should call her mother now since she and her father had been married for so long, but.....mother was a painful word for her in the literal sense. It was hard to explain as she looked to her father whom seemed to be plotting in some way "Is everything alright? " She asked him with a curious twinkle in her eye as she sipped her juice. <E>
Azriel : would nod and then turned to look at Gisselle, He would smile back to her before speaking. "You're pretty too...just like that pink haired woman." Then with that he too would take his leave.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would arch a brow slightly but at least Azriel had eaten a bit off of his plate. He was proud of the young one and the platter was asked about for his daughter to be put into her room for when she actually and finally goes to bed. He was about to get up from his seat when he would see his daughter, Gisselle entering within. He smiled and sat back down in his chair while thinking about her words... "Your mother is gone to go lay down and I was just about to go see how she was but I can stay and speak with you for a bit. How are YOU doing this eve, my rose?" asking but not giving her an answer to her second question for a moment while he put a leg over the arm of his chair. leaned over to one side of it and put his elbow onto the other arm of the chair where he would proceed to put his thumb to his chin and his index finger to his upper lip. "Ah well after the incident with Azriel and your sister, Elera... I thought it best to get the two of them together again for dinner, this eve. Azriel put the roses back into the gardens and even apologized to Elera for ah... taking her to the hells. I had also found out this evening that his parents were not too pleased with him as well for they had put a collar on him to keep him from using his abilities against another like Elera or on her again."~
Xianka : had been wandering about for many days if not month's, She had finally came across another kingdom it would seem. The feline would purr as her violaceous gaze fell upon a few guards, She would smile and wave at them as she passed through the gates wearing a crimson cloak. The only thing that could be seen of the woman was maybe a tad bit of grey and black fur and those eye's of her's, She would slink about the kingdom and soon spotted the castle. After a bit of a walk the female would come across guarded door's of the castle and blinked for a moment, She would look to the guards and smiled sweetly. "Hello, I am here to see the ruler's of this land. I seek some information about a rumor I have heard, I wish to know if they had heard of the same." With that she would wait to see if she would get a friendly response, To be honest she really didn't have any rumor's to share so if asked she'd have to think of something on the spot. <e>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤Ѵяέȿȿȴⱱέ : kind of went wide eyed for she had no idea there was an incident she wasn't informed. "What?' She said kind of shocked putting a hand to her chest ....to think her baby sister went through the exact same thing, Nims Daughter and Drakkonis's son.....Azriel did to Elera what Drakk did to Nimena...she remembered that day very well. "Are They? Is Elera okay?" She asked curiously, then remembered the question her father asked her, how she was doing. She let out a soft sigh. "Well....not good, I know that the kingdom want's to declare Verve as they did King Sarkas my step father......but.....I don't know if I could go through that process again, I am scared to be honest, everytime someone tries to take over for me they vanish....you at one point, King William my great uncle, mother Arafina....Sarkas......I cannot loose you again but.....I....cannot lead.....not now....not without my king..." She knew she had done it before but it was different after she married Verve and had two children. Her thought process was broken when a guard came to tell them there was a female at the gates wishing to speak to them. "Bring her to the main hall.." She said softly and picked up her goblet of juice holding out her hand to her father. "Shall we, or do you wish me to speak to her so you can see Lady Nim?" She asked her father with a warm smile on her face as awaited his response. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He stood up after taking the last bit from his plate... still eating with his fingers. Damn he forgot the fun of doing such. He smirked and when the guard came in to announce another he arched a brow and sighed only to look over to his daughter. "Elera is alright or shall be very well... she has her cub AND a new pillow that watches over her. Azriel and Elera will be doing... you know... I have a really good idea of what you could do, my lovely rose. How would you like to be the two's teacher... only when they are not with Kusiel, that is." he smiled as he took her hand and gripped it firmly while bringing it to his lips and kissing her palm ever so lightly. His eyes gleamed with that wonderful idea that he just had and actually hoped that she would go along with it as well. It would give her something to do and not brood over the fact that her mate was not around. "Do you think you can take care of this new comer, to our lands? For I would like to go see how your mother is. She did look suddenly ill." though he knew why she had and actually had a twinge in his stomach for making her feel that way~
Xianka : would be ushered inside and over to a waiting area, The woman would purr softly before taking a seat. She would then look about the room and smiled softly, It was nice in here compared to the other castle she had been in before. These lands seemed calmer and well taken care of, No industrial like work sites and so far no bossy king throwing their weight around. Her eye's would roll at the thought of Amari, She would sit and wait patiently. Well she was in now...what would she do, The creature would for now keep to herself and keep out of trouble. It was time to snoop and get her nose dirty, Xianka was an assassin after all and needed to get information of possible hits if there were any. <e>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤Ѵяέȿȿȴⱱέ : "Very well father...I can try...never actually taught....but I guess I remember all my studies Arafina made me go through, though I won't put them through the extra till I see what they do with the norm. And no worries I will speak with the newcomer..." She said softly as she kissed his cheek and had the guards lead her to wherever they took the newcomer. And when she arrived to the woman's location she smiled and nodded her head to her speaking softly. "I heard you seek me miss, I am Queen Gisselle Vressl've of Eladrin.....what is this question you have for me?" She said checking her out for the most part, she seemed to be some sort of fighting type, which did not make Gisselle fear her but she was cautious while she held out her hand to the feline woman awaiting her response. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would be in the study at this time as he was doing some research on a particular Council Member and his families background. He was at one of the tables and looking through the archives when a soldier came to him with Lil Red trailing up behind him. He whispered into Lucien's ear and then Lucien dismissed the guard as he looked on over to the woman. Indicating to his right for her to take a seat. "You wish to join the military... what branch and at what capacity do you believe your skills will be good for... also... what are your skills?" he would lean back after shutting the tome so that she would not see what he was doing... for he did not know her from an adams apple. He looked her up and down slowly as if he were gaging her at this time.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : awoke with another nightmare again but this time she sat up in a severe cold sweat. She climbed out of bed, her hair was a little damp, wearing her green gown with her night cap as she came around the corner and down the halls to go find her father. She was heading to his office since thats where he has been spending most of his time lately but she stopped with a sigh at the door when she heard his voice talking to someone and it sounded important. She sighed heavily as she sat down in the hall way. She had to be a good girl so she didn't go back to that fire place, she was so scared to go back there. Her eyes were swollen from last nights crying from her nightmares all thanks to Azriel. Her meanie cousin as she sat knees to chest on the floor with her back against the wall waiting for her dad to finish and trying not to listen in, just waiting till the other person left. <E>
LilRed : = She followed with ease. Even though she couldn't really see, she listened to the shift in the air. The sound of the tome closing loudly. Her head continued to stay leveled with his. Her milky eyes staring forward, unblinking. "Yes I wish to join. My many years as an experienced hunter should be skills enough to join. I also have "Have a different form. Sharper senses.. heightened reflexes.. Longer fuse.." She cleared her voice. " You won't be sorry hiring me. I train hard. I don't give up easily.. and if it is my time to die.. I'll take many enemies with me". She continued to stand with her chin held high. "The only downside is my lack of vision. But "For the lack of my sight.. I make up in other areas. I strive to do my best.. and only the best. I do not accept failure. Only success". She also needed something to focus on. Besides the boiling rage within her heart.=end=
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he furrowed his brows slightly and tilted his head to the side while then he too would stand up only to face her but as he did so... there was a sudden swift motion from his left hand and one that would be like a bluring... blink of an eye. He would try and punch her in the stomach but... if it did get through her defenses he would stop dead only an inch from her actual body. A test to see just how badly her eye sight would be and if she would be able to actually deploy things and such of herself to keep an enemy at bay..~
Delilah : had come out of the stone in the great hall of the castle, She would have worn nothing but of that of the earth itself. Leaves and moss covered the important bit and her body was lightly draped with roots and vines, The creature would blink and smile softly. The woman would then then look about the room before frowning a little bit, She would slowly make her way to the dining room where Delilah and Nim had breakfast with at one time. Once there the woman would grab herself some food and then took a seat in one of the chair's, Though something had caught her attention. There were chips in the stone off to her right and scrapes on the stone flooring from what looked to be weapons scraping across it, Delilah would raise a brow and gently lean down to touch the stone. Closing her eye's the woman would see and feel what had happened in this room she now sat in, After a moment she would jolt her eye's open and immediately blush. "Oh my." She would then keep to herself and go about eating now.<e>
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : Just continues to wait~
LilRed : = She could hear the different sounds shifting. A slight flap of his outfit had tipped her off. The left hand was moving towards her. Her right hand curled into a fist. She pushed her arm forward quickly, deflecting his left hand. She pushed her left leg back and stretched out her right. Lowering herself to the ground. Her left hand hand shot out. Wrapping her fingers around his ankle. Now if he had moved.. she would catch the bottom of his pant leg. If he didn't, his ankle would be in her grasp. Red would pull her arm back towards her chest, attempting to knock Lucien off his feet. =end=
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : appeared in the dining hall where she felt a familiar ping and saw Delilah where she had spoken out the words 'oh my' . "Yes not exactly one of my daughters finer moments..." She said shaking her head and sitting down nearby Delilah as she continued on. "So what brings you here? You need help? Is Damien in trouble? Drakkonis? Are you alright?" She asked curiously to the woman, not often she brought herself here to this neck of the woods. So something must of been off, but you never know with that side of the family, she had to deal with quite a bit with them in recent days. Now she folded her arms and waited for Delilah to respond hoping there wasn't more trouble heading this way. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would keep a very sharp eye on her and the motions of her body... as she went down and she went for his ankle she would find him flipping backwards while bringing his feet upwards to the underside of her chin but not till after he had jumped up and ever slightly backwards but the closeness of them both would still make it so that his long legs would hopefully either hit her under the chin and or her to block his next attack upon her frame. IF he was able to successfully do the back flip though he would continue to do the backflip till he was standing up once more. He would put his hand up to stop her from any more actions BUT IF he did not get back up he would continue with the sparring~
LilRed : = She snarled softly but it was a snarl of happiness. For a brief moment she didn't have that rage to think about. When she felt the boot push under her chin. Well yes..that had slightly stung. Her head smacked the floor hard but she was already rolling to her side. Her claws snagged the side of his boot. So as he landed, she was sprawled out to the left side of him. With her hand still attached to his boot. Raising herself up a bit, her right hand moved towards his thigh. If she was successful the hit from her fist would hurt like a bitch. However if.. it wasn't, all he would feel was a slight rake from her claws. She was still in a vulnerable position since her left hand was caught upon his boot.=End=
Delilah : "Mmm I think it was quite fine Nimena, You don't need to be ashamed. She's young." The woman would listen to what Nim had said about danger and such. "No not at all, I am fine and so is everything else but as far as Drakk goes...well he's been collared it would seem and now remains in Nighthowl..." The creature would wave a hand and smiled softly, Delilah would go back to nibbling the meal she had picked out to eat. Her eye's would look about the dining room before laying her eye's back on Nimena, She would take a sip from a fruity drink. "How are thing's here Nimena?" She would ask politely, The dining room would fill with warmth and the scent of spring.<e>
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : "Well that puts a damper on things now doesn't it?" She said referring to Drakk about the collaring. "I wonder how his crystals are going to function here while he is under lockdown......If he is not in any danger then I will let him get out of that situation due to he has Tacita, if I don't have to leave here with Gisselle still not herself and my husband and I running things here in the meantime. I don't have much time for anything else save for it being a dire emergency..." She explained as she took a sip of tea and awaited for Delilah to respond. "Otherwise things are okay....under control for the most part.." <e>
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was sitting down waiting patiently when she heard a bunch of crashing in her fathers study. "Somethings wrong!" She said as she jumped up to her little feet and ran into the door to find daddy in a wierd position with a strange lady. Elera went wide eyed, well as wide as they could get because they were so puffy and just stood there with her mouth open for a few moments before speaking out. "Are you two playing?" She asked quietly as she stood by the door waiting to be told to leave or what to do at this moment because she didn't know what else to say. <E>
Delilah : would listen and smile softly to Nimena, She would look to her meal and then back to Nim. "Is there anything I can do for you?" The creature would ask in a gentle tone, She would take a piece of meat and put it in her mouth to chew. The woman would take a sip once more and tilt her head off to the left, She would wiggle a little in her chair.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would use his right knee to knock the hand from his inner thigh and he then put his hands up and spoke... "Stop!... relax now...." He would have noted the snagging of her claws to his boot and he chuckled softly with a nodding of his head. "I think you are more then able to defend yourself and in that aspect I will give you, your choice of branches to join. You will be just one of our Soldiers till I see..." he stopped and looked on over to his daughter and blinked... "Oh damn..." he whispered and laid down onto his back again with his arm on over his face... "Yes Elera... we are sparring." he lifted his head and went to try and undo Red's claws from his boot. It was a good thing he was wearing his hard boots this day.~
Niɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : thought for a moment before speaking out. "For now if you would if your going to stay for a while and Drakkonis is indesposed, when Gisselle goes out just keep watch over her......I know she is safe for the most part, but if she ever happens to wander out of the warded area, just ......keep a look out. Kushiel is watching the children but she has been so busy with the wee ones she cannot keep track of the older ones, and they bounce all over the place. "<e>
LilRed : = Her hand stilled in the air. She was panting heavily but had a smirk upon her face. " Thank you.. My lord.." She sighed softly and reached behind his boot. Attempting to pluck her claws off of his boot. When she did, Red pushed herself away from Lucien. At the small voice, Red looked over at Elera. Okay..so it the sight was.. *okay so.. the sight was.. awkward. Very awkward. She cleared her throat and pushed herself into a standing position. "Uh... Yep Just sparring. Your father kicked my ass.. I mean shit! Sorry! crap! I mean beat me.." Oh hell. Well fuck it. She swore a lot. =end=
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : She went wide eyed when the lady said a lot of new words she never heard before. She decided that it was probably a good idea not to say them so she sort of just nodded. "I...heard a crash and thought something was wrong.....I never heard the sparring game before.....but .....okay father.....I umm....I will go away till your done..." She said sort of quietly as she shut the door and sat back down in the hallway quietly till they were finished. <E>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He would arch a brow slightly as Elera went out of the study once more. Grimacing slightly he would look to Red and put his hand out to her... "I will have you go see Captain Phesone at the training grounds. Ask one of the guards to bring you there. Let him know that you have just sparred with me and that you wish to go into whatever branch of the military you wish to. I am sorry but I think I should go see to my daughter... she seems to be needing a bit of attenion at this time. And M'lady Red... welcome to the military." he smiled to her and nodded his head only to then let go of Red's hand... IF she actually shook it or not and went to go see to his little princess.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : saw her father and that lady come out of her fathers study and she stook up dusting off her dress from the floor. She only came up to his knees as she looked up to him stretching her neck speaking out when the lady started to walk away from them. "I don't want to sleep anymore.....can you stop me from sleeping so I don't have to dream anymore?" She said quietly as she looked to him with her arms at her sides she didn't want to see the smoke anymore and the noises from the monsters. "I don't like fire anymore...." She said now putting her head down with a heavy sigh. It was sort of a cryptic statement, but she really didn't know what hell was nor was told thats where she was when Azriel attacked her. <e>
LilRed : = She had nodded her head. " I understand.. My lord.." She cleared her throat. Her hand reached out, feeling his hand. Her fingers gripped his tightly. A firm handshake. " Thank you My lord.. I will not let you.. or Lady Nimera.. Or the kingdom of Eladrin down.." She let go of his hand and stalked out of his room. She moved swiftly and with grace. Even though she couldn't see, she could tell the difference between a wall and an open hallway. Lucien had told her to go see the Captain.. So that was her intention. Visiting the captain would be her the first thing to do in this kingdom. She was rather.. proud of herself. So the grin would form upon her lips.. =end=
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He furrowed his brows slightly as he then bent at his knees to pick her up into his arms and kissed her cheek lightly. "why is it that you do not wish to sleep my little dove? You can have so many lovely dreams when you shut your eyes. Griffons that you ride in the skies of a sun set or running through a field of flowers with unicorns and pegasus all around you. The wonderful magics that you can conjure in your dreams can be such a wonderful experience. So... tell daddy why you would not wish to see these things when you fall to sleep?" he was wondering about the fire aspect of her words as well. "Little dove you are of fire yourself... you are of my body as you are of mommies body too and flames is a natural thing for you to do... due to me." he put his palm out and soon there were two figures dancing on his hand but they were made of flames.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : saw the flames and buried her head in her fathers shoulder as she spoke out. "No...I can't make fire anymore mommy stopped me....I don't wanna see fire anymore....Or the smoke or the dark place or the monsters growls and claws and the bad smell and I couldn't breathe and I was good I was just trying to protect sissy's garden I didn't want to get eaten by the monsters and smoke!" She said crying out and curling up against him hiding in his hair. She was crying again. "He was ripping up Sissy's roses and I tried to put him back and he pushed me in a dark room and I couldn't get out or breathe! I was good I was fixing it what he was tearing up and I was choking I see it in my dreams all the time I don't wanna see it anymore!" She said continuing to cry trying to explain everything. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He listened to her and hugged tightly as he would slip his thoughts into his love's mind as carefully as his angered mind could let him... *love... can I see and speak with you about something? Now?!* his words were too softly... too calmly spoken but she would feel the anger arising in his body and he does not even know what is going on... yet.~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : appeared as soon as Lucien called for her and saw Elera crying on his shoulder. SEeing the fire dancing and Elera shaking she put two and two together immediately and she new that look in his eyes. She walked over and put a hand on Elera's head putting her to sleep on her fathers shoulder so she wouldn't hear their conversation. "You had been so busy I hadn't hardly seen you or had a chance to catch you up on what has occured......nor did I think she would remember..." She said as she had a lot of explaining to do it seemed. " Two nights ago Azriel was digging up the roses in the royal garden. Elera was upset because he was destroying her sisters garden. She started to put the dirt back and Azriel being a kid had a temper tantrum and basically pushed Elera downstairs..... sort of what Drakkonis did to me many years ago......she's our daughter but taking after me she doesn't do well in hell. Drakkonis and Kushiel were able to get her out and Drakkonis saved her. Azriel is under punishment somewhere....but Drakkonis is collard and being held in another realm....and Elera hasn't said much until today.....to you....before I could talk to you...." She wished she could of told Lucien first.....she didn't want him to find out this way. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he looked to his love as his eyes would be fiery in coloring and his temperment was not looking too pleased with what he had just been told. He grimaced and hissed lightly while slowly he would put his left hand upon his daughter's back of her head. He kissed her forehead but... his lips did not come from it. He shut his eyes and the link between the flames inside of Elera and himself... he would join together as one life line... sort of.. When that connection was done he slowly opened his gaze to his love and putting his right hand out for her to grasp onto... while still holding onto their little princess. The three of them would suddenly appear in his realms of flames but instead of flames ALL around them there would be a field of red poppys all around as far as the eyes could see. In the distance the sun was coming up over the horizan but every aspect of it would be of flames that would hardly be seen for his daughter to see the beauty of what flames could be. The colors it could bring for even the poppys would be made of flames themselves. There were even imps like that of what Gisselle, Tylan and even Thraele have with them.~ wake her up love... he would speak softly~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : took his hand and followed him to that firey pit of his and watched him change it. When he changed it Nim lifted the sleeping spell upon Elera and spoke out softly. "Look.......not all fire is scary....even I was once afraid of the fire.....The very same thing happened to me that happened to you......your father had to show me like he is showing you now that it is not scary. Some fire is good, and you are part fire....and you are good. You did nothing wrong that day, you were protecting your sisters flowers, and now look at all these flowers. " She said in soft tones waiting for Elera to react. <e>
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was awake for a second in a hall way, the next she was in a place with red flowers and bouncy flames. She really didn't like the bouncy flames at first, then she heard her mother talking. She still didn't know what hell was or thats where she was actually at that day, but she looked around, saw the flames kind of dancing towards her and she just hid her face in her dads hair. "No" She said quietly pointing the statement more towards the fire imps. "Don't like it........" She said curling up again against her dad. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He smiled and shook his head with a soft laughter. He would have the imps disappear except one... that one would suddenly be on his shoulder opposite of where Elera was hidding her face into her father's shoulder and chest. The imp went from the opposite shoulder and over to the one Elera was at only to suddenly and ever so gently poke her on the head... the imp tried to hide inside of Lucien's hair but it's tail and ever so tiny buttocks was still sticking out from the crimson hair hanging losely along his shoulders.~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : was just watching the whole thing silent now with them as the fire imp moved to Elera poking her.
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : felt something poke her and it was that imps face coming out of part of her daddys hair. Now that wasn't suppose to happen, why wasn't daddy's hair burning! There was fire in it! Did not make sense! She shook her head at it. "Nope.." she said as she watched the Imp just staring at her. She quickly took her finger and poked at it back and it didn't burn. She blinked and poked it again, she guessed where its stomach would have been. She blinked again and moved from her daddys shoulders standing up and staring at that thing on his shoulder. As if the little wheels of the six year old were dangerously turning. "Your not the same fire, you weren't dark and you are letting me breathe....the other fire that Azzie put me in made me float over my body before Uncle Drak put me back...." Nim went wide eyed, she didn't know things went that far as she stared but said nothing. Elera was still staring at the fire imp. "How do I know whats bad and whats good....Azriel was good but he went bad, Fire was good, but Azriel's fire was bad......I don't.........like.......this....:" She didn't like knowing what was what or what was bad or good or up or down. "If I promise to sleep can I go home?" She liked the flowers but she was still not completely comfortable trying to talk her way out of it. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he chuckled softly and put the imp, who was chuckling as well from the pokings of his tummy. it sounded so cute like that of a crackling fire from off of a log. Lucien looked over to Nim and seeing the look of shock on his love he grimaced slightly but then nodded his head as he would take both his ladies' hands into his own and slowly did the flames become the colorings of the rainbow to bring them back to the Castle and into the gardens. There he would have one of the other nannies bring her to her room while the very scent of burning logs would be on all four of them... yes the small imp joined them back to the castle and as it started to slip off of Lucien's shoulder it would start to transform into that of a cute little fluffy pillow like doll for his daughter. He knelt down and kissed her forehead lightly... "He will be a friend for when you need one and even will take you to safety if it is needed. Do accept this gift?" he asked her softly.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ nodded and took it and went with the nanny to bed
Azriel : had stepped out while his mother was busy doing mother thingies elsewhere in the bathroom, He had went back to the castle garden's to replant the rose's he tore out of the ground. Feeling bad for what he had done the boy would sit where he had been before, The creature would pout and look about the garden from his position noticing the girl wasn't there. His abilities have been capped for the time being but he still had questions about what he had experienced through the necklace that was given to him, The boy's wing's were out but were still sore. He moved them slightly and turned his head to look at them, Azriel would sigh and soon get up from his position and wandered into the castle itself. He was looking for Elera.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He had been told by one of the imps that Azriel was in the gardens and then shown what he was doing there. Lucien arched a crimson brow and smiled to himself as he then looked on over to his love and daughter... "I have something to do for a moment... continue to eat your dinners." he would lean down slightly to kiss his daughter's forehead lightly as well as his love's cheek only to then leave from the dinning hall to go meet up with the boy just as he stepped in from the gardens. He looked very sternly down at the boy but inside he was hiding the fact that he was so proud of the boy for what he had just done. "So... you are Azriel... I take it?" he spoke lightly with his arms folded over his chest while then waiting for an answer from the young male.~
Azriel : would stop in his tracks and looked up at Lucien, His creepy gaze falling upon the other male. "Aye, I am..." The creature would then look down to the flooring, He would rub a single foot against the stone floor. "I didn't mean to take her there..." The boy would speak up knowing exactly who he was to Elera, His mother and father had told him of their relation. "I'm sorry..." He would admit to the other male, The creature would tear up a little bit knowing how serious it had gotten when they were down there. The boy knew what happened to the girl, He also knew what his father did for the child too. "I really am sorry..." He would reach up to his collar which Lucien wouldn't be able to see, The boy tugged on it not liking the feel of having it on.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he crouched down to get to the eye level of the child and grimaced slightly... "A child's anger is a very emotional and powerful thing and I know you did not mean to harm her the way you did. What I would like from you, though, Azriel is for you to join us... and I mean Lady Nimena and Elera for supper. When you are there... I would wish you to say those very words you just did to me... to Elera. Do you think you can do that?" he asked as he put his hand out towards the young one and even smiled slightly to him. "I know what you did in the gardens and I think that will help Elera to start looking at you just a bit differently... you think you can do that too?" he would wait till Azriel took his hand to then stand up again and guide the young one to the dinning hall where he knew Elera and Nimena were having dinner.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : Nimena and Elera were continuing to eat quietly at the dining table. Elera was just eating soup for right now and her milk, Nimena was eating some vegetables and fruit, light dinner she wasn't really very hungry, it was a stressful day and she was worried about how her daughter was processing everything, Nimena wasn't sure how Elera was taking all that had occured with her father today. Elera was just quiet most of the time while mommy and daddy were talking but she did sleep with the Imp pillow and she only awoke once. She wasn't sure where her daddy had to go but he was running a whole contry now like her sissy, it looked scary to do so she hoped she never had to. She wasn't sure what she actually wanted to do but hoped that it didn't have to do with unknown fire of any sort, sort of growing a phobia of fire that wasn't her fathers. <e>
Azriel : would nod to the male and take his hand hesitantly though since he was kind of a stranger to him, Though he would trust him since his father knew this man well. The creature would speak up to him once they started walking. "I promise I'll tell her what I told you, I was actually looking for her in hopes to do just that..." The boy would follow Lucien to where Elera and Nimena had been, He was getting nervous the closer they got to the dining room. Azriel's palms started to sweat and he started to feel as if thing's were going to go bad again, Though he continued on as he tried to push those feeling's back. He would continue to follow the other male, His own grip was firm but not too firm since he was still a little boy after all.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : just before they would turn the last corner to go down the last corridor to the dinning hall... Lucien would crouch down once more and looked to the young boy with pride shining in his eyes... "You have every right to be nervous but I shall be at your side the whole time that you are inside the dinning hall... alright? I shall not let anything happen to you and you can always lean on me if you need to." He nodded and then gripping onto Azriel's hand to show him support... Lucien then strutted on into the dinning hall and presented the young one to his love and his pretty daughter as well. "Look who I had found out by the gardens?" he chuckled softly and brought the young boy to sit across from Elera.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was eating quietly when she saw her dad pop in with non other then Azriel. Her eyes went wide she squeaked like a church mouse that got startled by the scary cat looking at her like his chew toy and ran under the table down the end and out the door. Nimena let out a heavy sigh. "One moment..." It wasn't as if Elera was going to get very far as Nimena poofed into a pile of gold glitter and appeared in front of Elera catching her in mid run. "Stop..." She said softly picking her up. "If he is here with your father he means you no harm, you know your father would never let anything happen to you don't you?" Elera was wanting to throw a fit right then and there, but the last time she threw a fit she ended up in a dark place. "Not hungry anymore!" Nimena smirked as she spoke out. "You can fool the servants...not me..." She knew when her daughter was lying and she poofed back into the dining hall with her daughter and set her down in her seat. "Don't make me glue you there..." And the thing was, Nim would do it too. <E>
Azriel : would look at Elera before she decided to run off, Oh he wanted to do the same thing but remained still in his seat. The boy would look towards Lucien and then back to the table, He would speak up but in a low tone. "I am sorry Elera for taking you somewhere else and hurting you...I didn't mean too..." Then she took off quickly, He would watch her for a moment and then looked at Lucien once more. The boy would look down sadly, His voice being heard once more but only Lucien would hear it. "I knew she would run...just like I want too..." The boy admitted and then saw Elera return with Nimena, He would look at Elera and continued on. "I also replanted your sister's roses..." The creature would look to the table and fiddled with the cloth, He was still feeling nervous. "I really am sorry..." The boy said to Elera.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he nodded his head and smiled before his daughter came back with Nimena once more... "I too had very nervous and scarry moments in my own life Azriel but you grow stronger when you actually face your fears and nervousness. This is only a very small part of what it is to be in the lives of others." he winked and then looked on over to Elera to see what she would do or even say to Azriel when she would finally be returned and hear the last bit of his words. ~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : She looked to the two of them and heard the last bit when he said he was really sorry. Elera looked over at him she didn't know what to say for quite sometime as she went from him to her half eaten soup bowl. She looked at that soup bowl for a while speaking while looking at the soup bowl instead of him. "Sissy is sad, I didn't want you to destroy her roses and make her sadder......it hurt in that dark place........I couldn't breathe.......I was just trying to save the flowers..." She said softly, enough for the three of them to hear, but it was still in a quiet little girl like tone. She still didn't look up from her soup bowl at any of them and remained seated in her chair lest her mom carry out her threat. <E>
Azriel : would listen to Elera and nodded. "I understand...I wasn't in a good mood...I wanted Aunty Kushie...but instead I did what I did...I am sorry...I didn't mean to take you there...It was scary there...I don't like it there...that's my father's realm..." The creature would fiddle with the cloth of the table more, He would swallow hard as he then continued on. "I don't know how I did what I did...but I didn't mean too..." The boy would grow silent once more for a time, Azriel would however reach up and tug at the collar once more. He wanted it off so he could run quicker than Elera had, Though there wasn't a way he could take it off. The boy would frown but he relaxed a little bit hearing Lucien's words, Perhaps that why his father wasn't really fearful of much. "Is that why dad always takes thing's head on without backing down?" He'd ask Lucien while turning to look at him, The boy curious.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he listened to them both and then looked to Nimena with a sharpness of knowing smile on his lips... "My love... and yes I can feel it on our own daughter... why is it that Elera can not do her own abilities at this time?" he would ask softly as he put a hand upon Azriel's shoulder to show that he was here for the young boy. He knew that if they would see that they were pretty close to each other after all... with temper at the least. he looked down to Azriel and chuckled slightly while then shrugging his shoulders a bit more. "It very well could be, Azriel for I was not around when your father was growing up but as for myself I have been able to put my life experiences into me facing other parts of my life and coming out on top or to have others understand where I am coming from." he winked and looked back to his daughter and love once more~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : was still looking down at her soup bowl listening to the two of them with Nimena nodding and still remaining silent letting the children for now work it out on their own and catch them if one tried to run, it wasn't until Lucien asked Nimena why Elera could not do her own abilities and she let out a heavy sigh. "Well....before you returned home she was angrier then four Azriel's, angry at any man that attempted to even talk to me screaming she didn't want a new daddy that her daddy would come home.....Little did I know she was exactly right, but I didn't want her attempting to set another man on fire like she did her Uncle Damien in her own bedroom with three servants inside. So I had to cap off her powers till I felt she was old enough to use them.." Nimena explained and Elera let out a heavy sigh. "Some of them were trying to be my new daddy, I didn't like any of em!" She shouted remembering those times, and if she was able to get heated the chair would melt...but thankfully Nim fixed that. <e>
Azriel : would sit there like a fourth wheel, His eye's still looking at the cloth. Tugging harder at the collar now, He felt as if he shouldn't be here with her family. "I...think I should go..." The boy would say before attempting to slip out of the chair, If he was lucky enough to do so he would try to head for the dining hall's door's. If not he would be stopped before slipping off the chair, He would stay then and continued to listen to them all. There was nothing else he could say on the issue that had happened, Though if he was stopped he would look to Nimena and speak to her. "By the way...that pink haired woman was pretty." The boy remembered seeing Thraele, For some reason he was fascinated by her looks and no it wasn't because she was nude...he was a child and didn't know any better at the time.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He would tighten his grip onto that of Azriel's shoulder for he wanted the boy to listen to the words from his love. "It would seem you, Azriel have a temper just as bad as my daughter's. That is at least one thing you two have in common." 'He smiled down to the boy as he then looked on over to Nimena... "How are the studies going for our little princess? She doing good in her studies?" he would ask for he was getting an idea in his head at this time. "I think I shall be speaking with Drakkonis and Tacita about Azriel's own education as well. He could join Elera in her studies for I have a feeling that he would like the scholar we have for Elera, as well. What say you my love?" he would ask lightly once more as a servant would approach that of Azriel and Lucien with the same meal that Lucien had infront of his own spot at the table.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : heard her daddy ask her mommy about her studies and Elera looked up from her soup bowl speaking out. "Mommy said I didn't have to do my studies......because the teacher left....she didn't want to teach me anymore.....she smacked my hand for picking up the wrong fork and I made her hair go poof!" And of course when Elera said that Nim kind of wanted to sink right there. Where did Nim steer wrong? Guilt had taken over her logic with her own daughter which usually never happened. But during that dark time Nim had fallen under a deep depression to the point she was letting Elera do what she wanted and Gisselle and Verve were pretty much watching over her. Elera looked over to Azriel speaking about the pink haired lady. "THRAELE?" She said loudly. "Yea...she is pretty....pretty CRANKY!" She said. she nodded her head in assurance knowing that she was right and most adults wouldn't refute it.....that was probably fighting words to Azriel's ears hearing the way she talked about the pink haired lady. <e>
Azriel : would blink and tilt his head hearing Elera's words, Confused at why Elera would say such a thing about Thraele. "She's not cranky...just misunderstood in my opinion...Before I got this stupid collar on my neck..." He would tug on it again but it would still remain unseen to the other's. "I felt she is a good person... just... trouble? Would that be the correct word?" He would look to Lucien when he asked, The boy would then look to Elera. "She just needs to relax and get used to those around her?" For some reason Azriel was starting to speak as if he was older and wiser now, Perhaps that was because of his memories and experiences his older self had from his time on the planes. Not necessarily with her in general but with other's, He would then look down to the cloth and fiddle with it more. The boy looking at the food, Noticing the venison the boy would start to eat like his father. Hands only and like a savage, He only chewed a few times and swallowed the half chewed food. Clearly there was little to no table manner's.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He narrowed his gaze towards his love, Nimena only to shake his head slightly but then he would pinch the bridge of his nose and sighed out softly. "I shall put out a land wide declarationt hat we need a scholar for the children. And yes little missy you WILL go to see the scholar and you WILL learn from this Scholar and you WILL also be learning from myself on how to use your fire like abilities as well.... then you will learnto..." He blinks and looks on down at Azriel with an arched brow... "Uhm... Azriel... slow down while you eat. you need to breath and not get choked on your food, young one." he nodded and looked to his daughter with a stern look.~
¤Ɲiɱέɳᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ¤ : saw that look and it wasn't a good look to her either, she had already felt bad enough, though she couldn't blame him, even in her own distraught state she made many mistakes she couldn't take back, just fix. She sighed heavily as her daughter remained silent and stood up from her meal speaking out. "You will do as your father says, and Azriel will be joining you in your studies, you two are close in age, I see no reason why you two cannot learn together since you two have so much in common." She stated as she let out a heavy sigh. "Please excuse me I don't feel well..." And with that without allowing any objections at this time she poofed out of the room into their bed chambers to be alone for the time being. <e>
Azriel : would stop and choked on the venison when Nimena said he would learn with Elera, Coughing and choking the boy would flail as the thought of learning with a princess. Shortly after he would beat on his chest and soon the food went down, His eye's widened for a moment. "But what about dad's approval...or moms?" He would look to Lucien, A burp arising the boy would cover his mouth with the crook of his elbow. "Excuse me." Azriel would speak out afterwards, The child would blink more though at the thought of such a thing. "Can she actually say what I can and can't do being not my mother or father?" He'd ask in a curious manner.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He watched his love and grimaced slightly... yes he had every right to be upset with his love but then he was sure that he too would have done a few mistakes IF he had been the one left behind instead of his beloved. He then sat down at his plate and started to eat with his own fingers but in such a way that was still with manners. A show to both his daughter and Azriel that you can still eat with out utencils but still have proper manners in doing so as well. he winked at them both and nodded towards Elera... "So... what do you think of Azriel joining you in your studies while aunty Kushiel is not around?" he asked while taking up a piece of potatoe and plopping it into his mouth. He was going to speak with Nimena later... "As for Lady Nimena getting permission from your parents... believe you me Azriel... she WILL get it and I think it would be good for the two of you to have a study together for this way... the two of you will get to know each other better. After all... you two ARE in the same family." he winked again.~
Eȴԑяᾶ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : would stay silent on the whole situation the entire time even when her father asked her after saying she WILL do her studies, she sort of shrugged her shoulders about Azriel joining her in her studies and how her mom WILL get the approval. They were in the same family, his father was her Uncle Drakk, so she already knew Azriel was her cousin. "Can I just go back to my new pillow now?" She asked quietly, she didn't want to say yes, no or indifferent to the situation, but she was going to quietly find a way out of it, she was after all both Nims and Luciens daughter. <e>
Azriel : watched Lucien eat and blinked for a moment, He would do exactly what Lucien had been doing while eating. Picking up a potato and placing it in his mouth like Lucien did the boy would blink. "Why eat like that...you don't get enough in one go...?" He asked curiously while eating, The boy would continue though to eat like Lucien had done so. The young boy would feel a little frustrated with this type of eating since he wasn't used to it, With a slight almost inaudible growl the boy would plop two more potatoes in his mouth instead of one.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he looked on over to his daughter and spoke not a word for a moment. "You have hardly eaten little one. I shall send you a platter for you to munch on... go on and rest. In the gardens... take your pup with you but you are NOT to leave the castle walls... understood?" he again spoke that last part with a stern look to her. Things were going to change around here and he just took the first step in doing such. He then looked on over to Azriel and chuckled softly with a nodding of his head. "well... we do not wish to choke on our food and in polite company... IF you have to eat with your fingers instead of your forks and spoons it is polite to do so slowly and also to... enjoy the flavors of the foods that you eat as well." though he was speaking with an eight year old boy. Oh he remembered those times and the way his own father tried to get him to eat.~
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤Ѵяέȿȿȴⱱέ : She came downstairs to get some juice after loosing so much blood trying to help get Sivella her memories back. She got to the dining hall, wearing a goldenrod colored gown that went to the floor, wraps on both her arms to cover them as went quietly getting her juice seeing her father, Elera leaving the table and Azriel. She smiled to the children and took a sip of juice looking to her father. "Where is Nim?" She asked curiously. She probably should call her mother now since she and her father had been married for so long, but.....mother was a painful word for her in the literal sense. It was hard to explain as she looked to her father whom seemed to be plotting in some way "Is everything alright? " She asked him with a curious twinkle in her eye as she sipped her juice. <E>
Azriel : would nod and then turned to look at Gisselle, He would smile back to her before speaking. "You're pretty too...just like that pink haired woman." Then with that he too would take his leave.<e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : he would arch a brow slightly but at least Azriel had eaten a bit off of his plate. He was proud of the young one and the platter was asked about for his daughter to be put into her room for when she actually and finally goes to bed. He was about to get up from his seat when he would see his daughter, Gisselle entering within. He smiled and sat back down in his chair while thinking about her words... "Your mother is gone to go lay down and I was just about to go see how she was but I can stay and speak with you for a bit. How are YOU doing this eve, my rose?" asking but not giving her an answer to her second question for a moment while he put a leg over the arm of his chair. leaned over to one side of it and put his elbow onto the other arm of the chair where he would proceed to put his thumb to his chin and his index finger to his upper lip. "Ah well after the incident with Azriel and your sister, Elera... I thought it best to get the two of them together again for dinner, this eve. Azriel put the roses back into the gardens and even apologized to Elera for ah... taking her to the hells. I had also found out this evening that his parents were not too pleased with him as well for they had put a collar on him to keep him from using his abilities against another like Elera or on her again."~
Xianka : had been wandering about for many days if not month's, She had finally came across another kingdom it would seem. The feline would purr as her violaceous gaze fell upon a few guards, She would smile and wave at them as she passed through the gates wearing a crimson cloak. The only thing that could be seen of the woman was maybe a tad bit of grey and black fur and those eye's of her's, She would slink about the kingdom and soon spotted the castle. After a bit of a walk the female would come across guarded door's of the castle and blinked for a moment, She would look to the guards and smiled sweetly. "Hello, I am here to see the ruler's of this land. I seek some information about a rumor I have heard, I wish to know if they had heard of the same." With that she would wait to see if she would get a friendly response, To be honest she really didn't have any rumor's to share so if asked she'd have to think of something on the spot. <e>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤Ѵяέȿȿȴⱱέ : kind of went wide eyed for she had no idea there was an incident she wasn't informed. "What?' She said kind of shocked putting a hand to her chest ....to think her baby sister went through the exact same thing, Nims Daughter and Drakkonis's son.....Azriel did to Elera what Drakk did to Nimena...she remembered that day very well. "Are They? Is Elera okay?" She asked curiously, then remembered the question her father asked her, how she was doing. She let out a soft sigh. "Well....not good, I know that the kingdom want's to declare Verve as they did King Sarkas my step father......but.....I don't know if I could go through that process again, I am scared to be honest, everytime someone tries to take over for me they vanish....you at one point, King William my great uncle, mother Arafina....Sarkas......I cannot loose you again but.....I....cannot lead.....not now....not without my king..." She knew she had done it before but it was different after she married Verve and had two children. Her thought process was broken when a guard came to tell them there was a female at the gates wishing to speak to them. "Bring her to the main hall.." She said softly and picked up her goblet of juice holding out her hand to her father. "Shall we, or do you wish me to speak to her so you can see Lady Nim?" She asked her father with a warm smile on her face as awaited his response. <e>
ζцɕiєɳ¤Ѵᾶȴԑɳԑяøȿ : He stood up after taking the last bit from his plate... still eating with his fingers. Damn he forgot the fun of doing such. He smirked and when the guard came in to announce another he arched a brow and sighed only to look over to his daughter. "Elera is alright or shall be very well... she has her cub AND a new pillow that watches over her. Azriel and Elera will be doing... you know... I have a really good idea of what you could do, my lovely rose. How would you like to be the two's teacher... only when they are not with Kusiel, that is." he smiled as he took her hand and gripped it firmly while bringing it to his lips and kissing her palm ever so lightly. His eyes gleamed with that wonderful idea that he just had and actually hoped that she would go along with it as well. It would give her something to do and not brood over the fact that her mate was not around. "Do you think you can take care of this new comer, to our lands? For I would like to go see how your mother is. She did look suddenly ill." though he knew why she had and actually had a twinge in his stomach for making her feel that way~
Xianka : would be ushered inside and over to a waiting area, The woman would purr softly before taking a seat. She would then look about the room and smiled softly, It was nice in here compared to the other castle she had been in before. These lands seemed calmer and well taken care of, No industrial like work sites and so far no bossy king throwing their weight around. Her eye's would roll at the thought of Amari, She would sit and wait patiently. Well she was in now...what would she do, The creature would for now keep to herself and keep out of trouble. It was time to snoop and get her nose dirty, Xianka was an assassin after all and needed to get information of possible hits if there were any. <e>
Ǥῖȿȿέȴȴέ¤Ѵяέȿȿȴⱱέ : "Very well father...I can try...never actually taught....but I guess I remember all my studies Arafina made me go through, though I won't put them through the extra till I see what they do with the norm. And no worries I will speak with the newcomer..." She said softly as she kissed his cheek and had the guards lead her to wherever they took the newcomer. And when she arrived to the woman's location she smiled and nodded her head to her speaking softly. "I heard you seek me miss, I am Queen Gisselle Vressl've of Eladrin.....what is this question you have for me?" She said checking her out for the most part, she seemed to be some sort of fighting type, which did not make Gisselle fear her but she was cautious while she held out her hand to the feline woman awaiting her response. <e>
